Some bored Canadians raised money to buy an Xbox 360 and then made a video of them smashing it. The point? None. Just entertainment and a way to get attention. Seems stupid to me but, hey, it's that kind of world.
I plan to buy an Xbox 360 but not until the Sony PS3 comes out. I don't want a PS3 but you can be sure there will be a significant price drop of the Xbox 360 when it does come out. And until then, I have more than enough games to play.
